Computational and experimental studies offer fresh insights into the neglected tetravinylethylene class of compounds. Both the structures and the outcomes of exploratory reactions of the parent hydrocarbon are predicted and explained in detail through high-level composite ab initio MO G4(MP2) computational studies.

reaction involving alkenic partners leads to the title hydrocarbon on multi‐gram scale in one step from commercially available precursors. In stark contrast to its close structural relatives, tetravinylethylene is a remarkably robust, bench‐stable compound. The π‐bond rich hydrocarbon is shown to undergo one‐pot sequences of pericyclic reactions leading to the formation of complex systems with four
